Customizing CSS Vertical Menu
Posted: Mon Feb 12, 2007 7:41 am
Hi,
I have managed to work through my Navigation CSS to stylize the navigation as I wish for it to appear, I kinda got it working but having some difficulty with "active" pages. Basically, I wish for every page that is active to become white like how the current "home page" is but it does not happen on any of the other links. For example if you click on "Link One", it still has the background image on it, also I added a extra page with no sub-menu and this does the same thing, can you help?
